The Municipal Services Committee is meeting 02/12/2-24 at 4:30PM.
They will be voting on Resolution 12-R-23 which calls for the closure of the Whitman Yard Waste Site.
This item was held for a month at the 01/08/2024 Municipal Services Committee meeting in order to provide staff time to research the potential cost savings of closing the site as well as the repercussions to Appleton’s agreement with Grand Chute to provide Grand Chute residents access to our yard waste sites. City staff has now determined that closing the Whitman Site would prompt Grand Chute to reevaluate their agreement with Appleton and likely reduce the amount they pay to Appleton for access to our sites. As a result, staff is recommending against approving the resolution.
The committee will also be receiving an update on the Complete Streets Study conducted by ALTA. The item is listed as an action item on the agenda, but it’s not clear what if anything the committee is being asked to vote on at this meeting regarding the study.
The committee will also be voting on preliminary resolutions pertaining to 2024 concrete pavement, driveway aprons, and sidewalk construction projects as well as for 2024 sanitary laterals, storm laterals, and storm main construction projects.
They will also be voting on a request to award the 2024 materials testing and contaminated soils contract to Westwood Infrastructure for $100,000.
